In a video clip from nearly three decades ago, the legendary Rush Limbaugh was able to obliterate the concept of virtue-signaling, and did so in 45 seconds.
The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines virtue-signaling as: "The act or practice of conspicuously displaying one's awareness of and attentiveness to political issues, matters of social and racial justice, etc., especially instead of taking effective action."
According to an article in the Boston Globe, the word "virtue-signaling" first surfaced in online message boards in 2004.
